My friend Ami is exploring the idea of starting her own business (creating handbags). The other day we were at the local coffee shop and we were discussing her new possible venture. In our disucssion, I got the impression that she was very confused as to where to even start. We discussed that the first step was to write up a solid business plan and I told her a great website to go to to find sample business plans...it is a website I frequented often when starting up my business.

I then told her, the next step was to take some time out and to read the book Art of Start. I told her that it is the best book out there to help you take your business concept from just an idea to reality.

She was really excited to have some reading material ideas.

I had the opportunity to speak with her over the weekend and she had just finished Art of Start and was thrilled with the ooomph in ideas and energy it gave her to get her business rolling! She bought the book off of EBay and she said it is one book she's going to keep for future reference!
